Chapter 304.1: Lian Shi’s Origins (2)
After the man said that, it immediately caused Lian Shi’s body to freeze in his spot, his face filling up with rage. “What did you just say?”
The girl that he had loved and treasured so much was going out of her way to put on a smile towards the man so affectionately and he could not do anything but to suffer through it in mute silence.
And now, the man who in his eyes, was always pretending to be deep and unfathomable, was acting like he had nothing to do with any of it and came here to tell him in such a curt and unfeeling tone that he had no feelings for the girl.
Is there a man that can be more detestable than him in the world?
However, not a single tinge of remorse could be seen on the man’s face as he looked at Lian Shi and said: “I said, I do not have feelings for her, so you do not have to be so wary against me, nor harbour any kind of enmity towards me. I will never be with her, nor will I ever accept her.”
“What do you mean by that?”
Faced with Lian Shi’s fury, the man still seemed highly calm. He remained silent for a good while before his violet eyes then seemed to ripple with a strange vortex within, absorbing and captivating to see.
Finally, before Lian Shi’s stunned and flabbergasted face, the man then said slowly: “Because I am of the demon race and she….. is a goddess.”
In that instant, something seemed to dawn upon him.
For the past million years, the demons and gods had fought and schemed against each other in order to win the right to rule over the world. Countless lives have been lost, and it seemed like they would never be able to peacefully coexist.
Although he had once been suspicious about the man’s identity, but hearing it right from the horse’s mouth still gave him quite a shock.
The man’s words that followed however caused his irises to flare, and his hands to clench up tightly into fists, his entire shaking slightly from astoundment.
“Do you know who she is? She is one of the future inheritors of the throne among the gods, the person who would rule over all that is light. The reason she came out this time is merely to gain some merit, a chip to be used in her fight to ascend to the throne in future.”
“Do you really think that she is as simple as the way you see her on the surface? Even you….. is merely just a pawn to be used in her chess game to her.”
“You are lying.”
He did not know what kind of feelings were coursing through him at that moment, but subconsciously, he just did not want to believe in that harsh and cruel truth.
And seeing that look of self denial on Lian Shi’s face, the man merely curved up his lips and went on to say: “You are just a weak and powerless human, and should not be dragged into this. That person….. is also not someone you can afford to provoke.”
“Why should I believe your words?” Lian Shi then said in a cold tone.
“It does not matter even if you choose not to believe me. This is just a friendly warning to you, as I do not want to see you being so foolishly used, and treats me like an imaginary rival in love everyday.” After the man said that in a highly indifferent voice, he immediately turned around and left.
